The real big guys are those with connections in the eyes of the system!

Seeing Yiqing turning around to leave, Suihong's eyes flashed with anxiety, "I don't mind!"

Seeing Yiqing pause, her eyes lit up and she continued, "I've heard that Senior Sister Qi is an excellent swordsman. I won't be satisfied if I can't see it for myself.

A gentleman's war is not a fight to the death, but one that uses all means at your disposal.

If Senior Sister Qi doesn't give up, you and I won't use spiritual power, and we can just compete with swordsmanship."

She said this so sincerely that Yiqing finally turned back.

She saw that Suihong had a sword in his hand.

Looking at the sword holding posture again, Yiqing's eyebrows raised slightly.

I didn't expect that she was also a sword practitioner.

"Please, Senior Sister Qi, fulfill my wish."

Suihong didn't hear Yiqing's answer, and felt a little uneasy.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered something she had forgotten and subconsciously slapped her head, "Look at my memory!"

She quickly took out the jade stick from the space and handed it to Yiqing, "Here, this is what I promised to give you a long time ago."

"Please don't misunderstand me, Senior Sister Qi. I am just keeping my promise, not using this to force you. If you really don't want to compete with me, you can refuse. I am not someone who goes back on my words, and I will not take the things back."

Yiqing moved her fingers slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes.

Did she misunderstand?

She did not take the jade branch immediately. She just raised her eyes and carefully looked at the expression on Suihong's face. Seeing that her eyes were clear and her face was calm, she suddenly swallowed back the words she was about to refuse.

"On tap."

She took the jade branch.

Looking at Suihong again, her cheeks were already flushed with excitement.

"Then please teach me, Senior Sister—"

As the sword was wielded, Suihong suppressed the emotions on his face, and his eyes became focused and steady.

Yiqing secretly admired and took out his own natal sword.

The two men moved at the same time, and the crisp sound of weapons clashing soon rang out.

Without the exaggerated reaction caused by the collision of spiritual power, their sword moves were revealed more clearly to the public.

You come and I go, you attack and I defend, then I counterattack...

Most of the spectators were also practicing swordsmanship. They were so fascinated by the show that they couldn’t help cheering.

Suihong's sword moves were actually very beautiful, but in Yiqing's eyes, there was still room for improvement. For example, some movements could be deleted, and it might be better if the force at a certain point was stronger. And...

Yiqing had actually found her weakness and could quickly defeat her.

Just by looking at that pair of serious eyes, she felt a little bit of appreciation for his talent.

She switched from offense to defense, and her sword moves showed a guiding intent.

"Sister Qi Rang was almost winning just now, why is her momentum weakening again? Could it be that her old injuries have not healed yet, and now even if she doesn't use her spiritual power, her body can't support it?"

"Senior Sister Qi Rang is worthy of being the best swordsman of the younger generation. Although this sword move looks simple, it is full of mystical meaning. What a pity..."

They all thought that she was lacking stamina, but only Sui Hong, who was fighting against her, could feel that she was not exhausted. The sword moves that seemed to be gradually suppressed by him could actually counterattack at any time.

As the fight lasted longer, she became more and more astounded at the man's comprehension of kendo. At the same time, she also sensed the other party's good intentions to teach her, and gratitude and admiration appeared in her eyes.

But soon she also caught a glimpse of the thin layer of sweat on Yiqing's forehead. Although her breath was not disordered, Suihong also understood that her injuries had not yet healed. If she continued to compete, it would probably cause damage to her body.

She found a gap and stepped back to increase the distance between them. "The gap between me and Senior Sister Qi is like a chasm. I give up."

The audience's voices grew louder.

"What an excellent competition! We have broadened our horizons today."

"Both senior sisters are so amazing!"

"If you two sisters don't mind, please teach me a thing or two."

“Stop flattering me. I know my own strength very well. Now I am not comparable to Senior Sister Qi. Just now, Senior Sister Qi was giving in to me, otherwise I would have lost long ago.” Suihong has a very good personality. Even though she lost, there was no sign of dejection on her face. Instead, her eyes and eyebrows became more and more energetic.

"But things change over time. Senior sister started learning swordsmanship earlier than me, so her understanding of swordsmanship is naturally stronger than mine. When I reach this age, I believe my understanding of swordsmanship will not necessarily be worse than that of senior sister now. Senior sister, do you believe it?"

The girl's proud and confident look was really dazzling. Yiqing nodded with a smile, "Of course I believe it."

Her recognition seemed to give Suihong great encouragement, and her eyes became brighter.

"Please find the elixir quickly to restore your cultivation. Next time, I want to use my spiritual power to fight with you for a few more moves to see if there is any other gap between us."

"Then you will be disappointed. The changes caused by questioning the conscience are irreversible. I'm afraid that my second senior sister's cultivation will stagnate here in this lifetime." Before Yiqing spoke, another male voice sounded in the distance.

When Suihong heard his words, her face suddenly turned cold, "Where does the barking sound come from?"

"You are so rude. I'm just telling the truth." Lao Wu walked slowly closer and glared at her unhappily.

Sui Hong was not willing to be outdone and glared back, "Who do you think you are to criticize Senior Sister Qi?"

Lao Wu never has anything nice to say, but although Suihong is average at talking, he never hesitates when it comes to taking action.

In just a few breaths, her sword was unsheathed.

Unlike when he was fighting with Yiqing, this moment the sword was surrounded by spiritual energy, so the power of this sword move was naturally greatly enhanced.

Lao Wu originally didn't take this little girl seriously.

But after a few moves, he was stabbed in the shoulder, and finally realized that although the man in front of him was young, he was very strong.

“You, how dare you!” Lao Wu glanced at Yi Qing who had not yet left. He felt extremely embarrassed that he had exposed himself to her. He gritted his teeth and shouted, “Which sect are you from? How dare you attack our disciples in the Xuanling Sect? Be careful or I will tell the elders in the sect to kick you out!”

Suihong doesn't buy it.

"Go and sue! Let the venerable elders of your sect see how useless you are. You can't even survive a few moves in my hands. You'll see if they will protect you or be ashamed of your useless status."

"you--"

"You're not going to participate in this sect competition again, are you? Oh my, wouldn't that be giving others a chance to advance for free? I'm really envious of the opponent who gets to compete with you." Sui Hong said sarcastically.

Lao Wu was furious, but knowing that he was no match for his opponent, he resisted the urge to attack again and bring humiliation upon himself.

He suddenly shifted his gaze to Yiqing, "Second Senior Sister, are you going to let the disciples outside the sect bully your fellow disciples? If Master knew..."

When he heard the word "Master", Yiqing's eyes suddenly darkened.

She pursed her lips and said coldly, "I know, so what?"

Lao Wu looked at her in disbelief.

Unexpected reaction.

Didn’t Second Senior Sister care the most about Master’s opinion of her in the past? Why does she look so indifferent now?

He couldn't help but glance at Yiqing twice more, and saw her lowering her eyes, with an unclear expression on her face, and a low tone, "I am half useless now, and I can't take care of myself, so how can I have the energy to protect others."

This makes it impossible to tell what she is thinking.

Lao Wu clenched his fist slightly.

Suihong's eyes passed from Yiqing to him, and she suddenly became angry, "You ignorant thing, get out of here! If you stay and get in the way, I don't mind giving you a few more injuries!"

Seeing that she was about to raise the sword again without any hesitation, Lao Wu retreated repeatedly.

"Crazy girl, I won't bother with you!"

It seemed that after saying this, he was saving his own face, then turned around and ran away without hesitation.

Suihong snorted coldly at his departing back, but when her eyes fell on Yiqing again, she felt a little worried.

But she was impatient and couldn't keep her words to herself, so she asked directly: "Senior Sister Qi, was that your fellow disciple just now? Are you both disciples of the same master?"

"Ah."

"I have always heard storytellers say that people in the mortal world are used to flattering the powerful and bullying the weak, but I never thought that those who seek the truth are not immune to this." Her tone was contemptuous and angry, but she turned her head and softened her tone, "Sister, don't be sad because of such a villain. If you don't mind, you can treat me as your own junior sister, and I will respect and protect you."

Yiqing didn't understand why she should defend herself.

Just by looking up, she met those sparkling eyes. She vaguely saw a little admiration in them, and suddenly she understood something.

There will be people in this world who will be jealous of your talent and trample on your sincerity. There will also be people who pretend to be close to you and suddenly stab you with the most brutal and least guarded knife.

But there will also be people who hear your name and want to meet you in person, who regard you as a mountain and do not change their attitude just because you are down and out.
